Comment Re:Fantasy is now king (Score 1) 742

As a genre SciFi and Fantasy are almost the exact same. The only difference is Fantasy is never true, while SciFi is "possible". SciFi has axed plenty of fantasy shows as well, the Dresden Files for one. The Dresden Files was/is definitely in the "paranormal" genre as well. Although that show suffered more from completely bastardizing everything that makes the books great. Back to my point, just because they're running fantasy shows doesn't mean that they're completely gone from their roots.

Ears might not change on their own, but I'm sure we've all seen plenty of people who have 0 gauge piercings which I'm fairly certain counts as a change. In a more direct response to the parent: Now when you go on your crime spree you'll just need to wear gloves and earmuffs. Duh.
